Winona Ryder
A lot of filmmakers and actors say, It's so important to bring an authenticity to the role, blah, blah, blah. But then it's interesting because you're also trying to be somebody else, and viewers are going to associate you with that, so I don't think it really has an answer.
Winona Ryder
I often get offered things that are so similar to things that I have done, and life is too short. When you make a film or a show, as you get older, that's a lot of time to be doing something that you're not absolutely invested in or in love with.
Winona Ryder
I'm quite comfortable looking at myself in movies, probably because I've been doing it for so long, since I was a kid. So I sort of watched myself grow up and go through adolescence, like, basically on camera.
Winona Ryder

Winona Ryder
I was exhausted and going through a terrible depression.
Winona Ryder
A lot of the old movie theaters are closing down now, which is really sad. It's still in the back of my mind.
Winona Ryder
I've loved making movies. I feel like I've been so lucky because I've gotten to be in movies that are some of my favorites, regardless of my being in them - like 'Heathers.'
Winona Ryder
